Is that from playing at high volumes, they backed 'em down or what? i know these things are "subjective" , but having wrestled with a VT-22 back in the day, i remember doing that more than once just to get "a musical sound" out of the stupid levels we used to play at back then.
Reason I bring it up is i got some of those Slash signature pickups and when i put it at the suggested settings the neck pickup is muddy/woofy and the bridge has a bad edge.
So Old S7 gets to work and eyeballs a few pix of Skydog to jog the memory banks, and drop 'em flush neck, and just above bridge, and voila.
but it ain't quite right, so up we go. I hit a sweet spot on the neck(the real lead pickup, amirite?) so i ain't touching that. but i can't get that back pickup to sound right at all. it's either a p-90 or telecaster.
Is any of that a result of the construction of the pickup itself? (what are they, scatterwound, overwound,waxed,blah blah, face the east, genuflect)
Appreciate anyone's 2 cents for sure, Thanks, and Cheers.
